Just as the title states, can we flash MIUI using CWM? Or do we really have to follow their guide ( Which uses a weird one)?

Custom roms can be flashed in any custom recovery Cwm,Twrp,PhilZ recovery etc they should come in .zip format which you can flash in recovery...Please provide link for the rom you are trying to flash

Here it is:

Rom: http://en.miui.com/download-17.html
I haven't tried it yet, maybe it's something like odin I guess.

Can't post screenshots I uninstalled it now I only installed it to test But it's standard Miui its based off 4.1 there is newer custom versions around the forum based on 4.2 which i think are better saying all that it's not too bad only had a quick look though.

Hey!
Go to HERE!
And how to go to recovery?
1)Shut down you phone.
2)Hold down POWER+HOME buttons together, until you screen blink once and then comes GALAXY ACE....(not just SAMSUNG logo). Now you can release the buttons.
Now you must see the RECOVERY menu. Use the steps, in that thread, what link I gave you.
ENJOY!
CHEERS!
I thought Froyo do not support ClockWorkMod 4.0.0.9 yet? Correct me if i'm wrong.

Yes, you're right, I should have checked first
Sorry I have another question. Do I need to unlock my phone in order to flash into KPH? As you can see from my first post my firmware region is not from Europe and the custom rom I wanted to flash requires me to flash KPH first before flashing their rom. And also if im using CWM v4 in KPH, do i need to flash back into v3 before flashing back froyo since froyo still doesn't support CWMv4?

Hey!
You mean UNLOCK or ROOTING. I think you mean ROOTING? If yes, then you dont need to ROOT, before FLASHING to KPH(with ODIN).
If you FLASH custom ROM, they are all ROOTED already for now!
And for second question: you not need to FLASH CWM3. It will be removed automatically, if you FLASH to KPH with ODIN!
CHEERS!

I mean unlocking because I heard that some people said that one need to unlock his/her phone before he/she can flash firmware of other region's. Base on your first answer, do you mean that flashing firmware and custom rom do not need root? Because I think I need to root before Flashing custom rom.( Anyway I have already rooted my phone.)

You not need to ROOT, if you FLASH new FIRMWARE with ODIN(ROOT after FLASHING, because you LOSE you ROOT, if you FLASHING). And custom ROM-s not need to ROOT, they all ROOTED for now!

Hi .. i have BIG problem.. I can not install any rom maybe someone encounter with this problem.. Is it possible to fix. or brought to warranty.. PLEASE HELP. THANKS. Recowery dont work. Downloade mode work but when to install any rom i got THIS View image

By looking at your picture I don't think you have custom ROM install or flash successfully. You're recovery mode looks standard/default by Samsung Stock Firmware. Try following the link posted above by tuxnice. Good Luck.
Edit: Did you happen to flash something to it?...Kernel, Custom ROM, Mods or trying to Root it maybe?

Root is already done on custom roms. 4.3 has developers options and root in there. If you dont see dev options tap build about 5 times and it will come up in menu.
Edit: do you mean your on stock rom and no root? If so yes you need to root first. Sorry haven't read posts to well today.
What firmware do you have? Gb/ics/jb?

I had rooted an HTC Desire, for Cyanogen. First with Samsung and Paranoid. Btwn I have i9100 model.
So pick say lss philz zip and flash that in recovery. Make sure you put it on ext sd and go to recovery and then update. Reboot and root with cwm recovery is done. Then follow op in pa for how to install pa rom.
Im on biftor v11 with apollo kernel.

CF auto root is the recommended path to root, it won't install CWM.

Then u can flash custom recoveries. U dun have to use cwm. U can use others like twrp, philz. Btw dun use the apps in play store to flash the recoveries. Google search "gt-i9300 (the custom recovery u wan)" and find it.
Sent from my GT-I9300 using xda app-developers app
It's recommended you flash a custom recovery regardless if u want to flash some mods or roms. It always comes in handy and you have the option to backup the whole system and create an image file, so you'll be safe, if anything goes wrong with flashing someday or you screw your system, you can always recover it with the custom recovery. Pretty amazing

You need to flash it with ODIN on your pc. Also your custom recovery that you want to flash through ODIN needs to be a .tar file

Unfortunately, we are not allowed to recommend stuff here and advertise. Just look under android development and read the comments, I'm sure you'll fine a good one. Don't forget to backup your current system first and your data. When you're done, you can test out roms not worrying much about if they work or not

Hi,
I have the samsung unlocked and rooted on a custom rom on 4.0.4

I have the clockworkmod recovery PhilZ Touch 3 6.0.1.5 but I am not sure if that one is a KitKat compatible (I imagine it is) or if I need to do something else to install the new ROM (apart from the standard instructions I mean, wipe, etc).
Thank you very much

Technically it's not a direct link, moreover it is a link to the folder containing the files. So you could say it is a relative link (or something called like that).
